When upon life’s billows
When upon life’s billows you are tempest – tossed
When you are discouraged and thinking all is lost
Count your many blessings, name them one by one
And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.
Count your blessings, name them one by one;
Count your blessings, see what God hath done
Count your blessings, name them one by one;
Count your many blessings see what God hath done.
Are you ever burdened with a load of care?
Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear?
Count your many blessings every doubt will fly
And you will be singing as the days go by
So amid the conflict whether great or small
Do not be discouraged, God is over all
Count your many blessings name them one by one
Help and comfort give you to journey’s end.
